What does CookItFor.Us do?
 Cookitforus

CookItFor.Us connects Cravers to Makers to get recipes made - delivering all the benefits of homemade, without having to cook. 

 
We enable consumers to "Crave" recipes they want made from across the Internet (e.g. Food Blogs, Recipe Sites), or from their own recipe boxes - with recipe holders earning 5% of each sale. Our network of licensed Makers (Caterers, Restaurants, Bakeries, Personal Chefs), "Make" the recipes, fulfilling on prepaid orders, and improving their profitability.     

Why do you care?

 

Faced with increasing time pressures, consumers are looking for alternative food solutions for themselves and their families. Convenience foods (e.g. fast-food, processed foods), have become the go-to solution, compounding feelings of guilt. Consumers want to cook more homemade meals, but just don't have the time. We can help get their recipes made. Any Recipe. Made Fresh. Delivered. 

Special Offer:

 

CookItFor.Us just launched "The CookItFor.Us Baker's Box," a service that delivers fresh baked cookies to you, your family and friends every month. It's the perfect holiday gift! Each Baker's Box typically serves 4.
